Published

Warren County Public Schools is excited to announce the arrival of tablets and Chromebooks for all preschool through fifth grade students. Preschool and kindergarten tablets have been dispersed to all of the elementary school. Chromebooks for students in grades one through five will arrive the week of November 9th. Schools will spend the week of November 9th training our preschool and kindergarten students, and the week of November 16th training grades one through five, to use the devices as well as the learning management systems that go along with them.

During these two weeks, teachers will spend less time on new instruction and will focus their efforts on teaching their students how to use the devices, and the accompanying routines and procedures that go along with 1:1 instruction.

On November 18th, a Google Form survey will be sent to parents in grades preschool through five as one of their children’s virtual assignments that day to ensure parents have been successful at logging into the device and onto the LMS–Seesaw for preschool and Schoology for grades kindergarten through five. On November 19th, teachers will contact any parents who have not completed the survey. On November 23rd, in-person training will be provided at Skyline High School in the auditorium by division technology staff. These trainings will be open to all elementary parents at this location. More information will be sent home to families by each school. Teachers and technology integration coaches will gladly train parents who require evening options.
